Bhagavad Gita 2.60

Sankhya Yoga

यततो ह्यपि कौन्तेय पुरुषस्य विपश्चितः | इन्द्रियाणि प्रमाथीनि हरन्ति प्रसभं मनः ||

yatato hy api kaunteya puruṣasya vipaścitaḥ indriyāṇi pramāthīni haranti prasabhaṁ manaḥ

English

The senses are so strong and impetuous, O Arjuna, that they forcibly carry away the mind even of a man of discrimination who is endeavoring to control them.

हिन्दी

हे कौन्तेय! विवेकी पुरुष के यत्न करते हुए भी इन्द्रियाँ प्रबल होकर बलपूर्वक मन को हर ले जाती हैं।
